Day 3 of the WPT Montreal is in the books, and 17 players have bagged chips onto tomorrow’s Day 4. Samuel Louis Gagnon propelled himself into the chip lead in the last level of play, after winning a 3-way all-in for roughly 1.5 million, and then doubling that count by flopping a set versus the top-pair top-kicker of Robert Earl McGhee. He ended the day with 3,350,000 in chips, which tops second in chips Terry Leon Schumacher by over 1.2 million.
Moments before the end of Day 3, Ivan Fazal Karim was eliminated in 18th place, having blinded down to just 1 big blind. He actually rivered a set on his final hand, but that same river card gave his opponent a straight to knock him out.
A few familiar faces are still in the running, including but not limited to Martin Raus, Mike Sexton, Jake Schwartz, Alexander Keating and Benny Chen.
Day 4 tomorrow will play down until the official televised final table of 6 players has been reached, and the winner will be crowned on Day 5, in front of the WPT camera crew and a live audience. Anyone wishing to rail the final table is more than welcome to do so – simply turn up anytime during the final table of the WPT Montreal and grab a seat, and help yourself to a drink to go along with the show!
